THE CARMICHAEL SHOW
July 5, 2017  | By David Bianculli  | 1 comment

NBC, 9:00 p.m. ET

 

The fact that original episodes of this NBC sitcom are being spooled out during the summer is one indication of how little regard NBC has for the social comedy Jerrod Carmichael is providing here. But here’s another, even sadder indication: NBC just canceled the show, so the episodes shown this summer will be the series’ last. The Carmichael Show deserved better – and almost everything on NBC’s schedule for fall, at this point, is worse.

NBC had a hard time promoting the last season of Friday Night Lights,Harry's Law,Hannibal more recently and now the Carmichael effort fades away and almost nobody notices. Must See TV? Carmichael addressed Bill Cosby's past and present.The N word? Yup. But not enough folks watched and some of that has to be on the audience uncomfortable with more than yuks. So,NBC loses another breakout show while going all in on This is Us. There is more than room for both and you should write NBC Executives on their site to tell them to take more chances not less otherwise we get more Ted Danson crap.
